hello; yes the post by email is great. I now use mars edit which i love because it means that much less time spent on wordpress. I'm getting better with their site, but its still not natural for me. I prefer to just write the post add the photos and html code where needed and press send to weblog. thanks and take care, max On Aug 27, 2012, at 10:08 PM, Christine Grassman wrote:
